<span>The first number = x
The </span>second number = 2x-3

x + 2x-3 = 36
3x = 36+3
3x = 39
x = 39/3
x = 13

The first number = x = 13
The second number = 2x-3 = 2*13 - 3 = 26 - 3 = 23

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

k=4

Step-by-step explanation:

5-7k=-4(k+1)-3

Distribute

5-7k=-4k-4-3

Combine like terms

5-7k=-4k-7

Add 7k to each side

5-7k +7k = -4k+7k-7

5 = 3k-7

Add 7 to each side

5+7 = 3k-7+7

12 = 3k

Divide by 3

12/3 = 3k/3

4=k

Which graph represents a function with an initial value of 1/2
melisa1 [442]
<span>The initial value is the value of the y-coordinate when the x-coordinate is equal to 0. That is the same to say the value at which the graph intercepts the y-axis. So, you justt have to pick the graph whose line intercepts the y-axis at 1/2. </span>

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

your answer would be  t=-1 or t=1

Step-by-step explanation:

-(2t-3) = 3t-2

Multiply

     -2t+3 = 3t-2

Rearrange and Add up

     -5t = -5

Divide both sides by 5

-t = -1

Multiply both sides by (-1)

t = 1

Which is the solution for the Negative Case

Solve the Positive Case

     (2t-3) = 3t-2

Rearrange and Add up

     -t = 1

Multiply both sides by (-1)

     t = -1

have a great day!
